OPENING Reception: Wednesday, July 7, 2010 Robert Berman / E6 Gallery is pleased to present MISSPELLED, an alphabet by Victor Reyes, handmade in California. An ambitious public art installation turned gallery exhibition explores the artists’ unique approach to graffiti, by dissecting individual letters and exploring the anatomy and architecture found in the symbols we use to communicate. Inspired by the cities streets, surfaces, and visual vibrancy, Reyes reinterprets the letters and presents them to us in a brilliant array of color and movement. Alphabets, recontextualized on various abandoned surfaces in San Francisco, are not intended to provide answers, but to raise questions about how we interpret public space, and the symbols commonly found within.
